Kraft, Matthew A. – Educational Researcher, 2023
It is a healthy exercise to debate the merits of using effect-size benchmarks to interpret research findings. However, these debates obscure a more central insight that emerges from empirical distributions of effect-size estimates in the literature: Efforts to improve education often fail to move the needle. I find that 36% of effect sizes from…

Xinxin Sun – Grantee Submission, 2023
Noncompliance to treatment assignment is widespread in randomized trials and presents challenges in causal inference. In the presence of noncompliance, the most commonly estimated effect of treatment assignment, also known as the intent-to-treat (ITT) effect, is biased. Of interest in this setting is the complier average causal effect (CACE), the…

Michael J. Weiss; Howard S. Bloom; Kriti Singh – Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis, 2023
This article provides evidence about predictive relationships between features of community college interventions and their impacts on student progress. This evidence is based on analyses of student-level data from large-scale randomized trials of 39 (mostly) community college interventions. Specifically, the evidence consistently indicates that…

Early preventive interventions can improve outcomes in childhood, but the most effective interventions can continue to deliver benefits through the life course. The Fast Track intervention, a randomized controlled trial for children at risk of conduct problems, has lowered psychopathology, substance use problems, and criminality and elevated…

Hannah D. Kassab; Julie Sarno Owens; Steven W. Evans; Elise L. Everly; Amori Yee Mikami – School Mental Health, 2023
The randomized trial of the Making Socially Accepting Inclusive Classrooms (MOSAIC) program included intensive coaching from research staff to support teachers' implementation of MOSAIC strategies and resulted in positive student outcomes (Mikami et al., J. Clin. Child Adolesc. Psychol. 51(6):1039-1052, 2022). However, these intensive procedures…

Maynard, Rebecca A.; Baelen, Rebecca N.; Fein, David; Souvanna, Phomdaen – Grantee Submission, 2022
This article offers a case example of how experimental evaluation methods can be coupled with principles of design-based implementation research (DBIR), improvement science (IS), and rapid-cycle evaluation (RCE) methods to provide relatively quick, low-cost, credible assessments of strategies designed to improve programs, policies, or practices.…

Ashraf, Bilal; Singh, Akansha; Uwimpuhwe, Germaine; Coolen-Maturi, Tahani; Einbeck, Jochen; Higgins, Steve; Kasim, Adetayo – Education Endowment Foundation, 2021
This study investigates the impact of Education Endowment Foundation (EEF)-funded trials on pupils eligible for free school meals. Although similar analysis is conducted during each individual evaluation, this report conducts a meta-analysis using data from 88 trials and over half a million pupils to reach conclusions. The report contributes to…

Osenk, Ivana; Johnson, Catherine; Wade, Tracey D. – School Mental Health, 2023
Perfectionism has adverse impacts on mental health and academic outcomes. We evaluated a 5-lesson classroom intervention for young adolescents delivered by teachers for impact on perfectionism, well-being, self-compassion, academic motivation and negative affect, at post-intervention and 3-month follow-up. Classes (N = 636 students, M[subscript…

Jesse Bruhn; Emily Emick – Blueprint Labs, 2023
This paper reviews research on the design and effectiveness of preschools in the United States. Three randomized controlled trials that enrolled roughly 350 total children in demonstration studies during the 1960s and 1970s shape much of the current discussion of preschool. We examine what these studies and more recent ones based on random…

Principals are the second-largest school-based contributor to K-12 students' academic progress. However, there is little research evaluating whether efforts to develop principals' skills improve school effectiveness. We conducted randomized controlled trial studies of the impacts of a professional development program called the Executive…

Although there is increasing acceptance that personalization improves learning outcomes, there is still limited experimental evidence supporting this claim. The aim of this study was to implement and evaluate the effectiveness of an adaptive recommendation system for Singapore primary and secondary education. The system leverages users trace data…

Zuchao Shen; Chris Curran; You You; Joni Splett; Huibin Zhang – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2021
Purpose: Key considerations in designing multilevel experimental studies are to efficiently use resources and to determine the sample size allocation such that designs have adequate statistical power. The utility of optimal sampling and power analysis results depends on accurate information about design parameters, such as intraclass correlations…

Background: It has become increasingly important to shift education research and programming from a deficit focused perspective to a positive youth development perspective in order to identify and promote factors that support students' positive functioning and outcomes. One outgrowth of positive youth development is Positive Mental Health (PMH),…
